Airborne Weather Radar – Online Training Outline

Our business aviation-specific Airborne Weather Radar training provides pilots with a comprehensive review of the use and limitations of their radar system. Pilots are presented with specific techniques that will help them identify and avoid hazardous weather using radar, and are also shown how to pair radar usage with other tools and resources. Emphasis is placed on the two absolute radar rules: never use radar to penetrate hazardous weather, and never continue flight towards a radar shadow. Real-life case studies and high-resolution depictions of actual radar screens and hazardous weather help solidify the trainee’s understanding of key concepts.
